Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet people, connect, learn, share, laugh, make new friends

Joining the Couchsurfing community definitely enriched my life in many ways. I met inspiring people, who shared their deepest thoughts with me, stayed at crazy places, made friends, had interesting conversations and discussions and got welcomed so warmly!

Interests

I am super interested in all kinds of sociopolitical topics: migration, social inequality, alternative ways of living... and stuff like that ;) I think it's time for a change in many ways, so let's get together, be creative, connect and find ways to make the world a better place.
I'm totally a foodie, who could eat around the clock. When I'm trying to sleep I already think about what to have for breakfast next day. Also enjoying all kinds of alcohol, with a special love for wine and beer ;)
Although I really appreciate the benefits of living in big cities I'm getting quite frustrated if I can't be in nature regularly. So I'm definitely in for all activities like hiking, swimming, snorkeling, diving, cycling or just chill at the beach.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming in the ocean by night sourrounded by glowing plankton.

Sleeping on a cart under the starry sky in the Indian desert. And getting into a sandstorm there. Twice.

Staying in a tiny village without electricity in Panama and trying to fall asleep with all the crazy sounds coming from the jungle
